i noticed you still have the holes for the side trim on the car , do you happen to know if the clips for the trim are being repopped , the previous owner gave me the side trim when i got my 70 swinger but all 46 clips are mia . btw the car is lookin good .

I have an answer for this question now.

Yes, they are being repopped. I got the clips from Roseville Moparts (www.rosevillemoparts.com).

Here's a current look at the car;

I'm waiting for the rear wheels to get here. I should have them by next week sometime, and I'll be pretty much done with the exterior.

I haven't updated this thread in quite a while, but I have a good reason to now:

The Dart got into Mopar Muscle in the PentaStars sections!

Sweeet build. And you did a great job. Mopar mag says you have a 360 magnum? Thought it was a 318mag stroked to 390? What you run et/mph at the track.

Thanks.

It is a 318Mag stroker. They must have just had a brain fart. LOL!

I haven't made a full pass with it yet, but with the 2.76 gears and street tires it went 13.00 @ 109, and I let out of it around the 1000' mark.

It has 3.23 gears and sticky tires now. I'll be dialing it in this spring, and it should go high 11's on motor.

Man Ron, this car is gorgeous. I remember reading through this back when you was in the paint stage. Well done sir.

Thanks Matt! I appreciate that, man!
